The Healing Power of Mushrooms

While medicinal mushrooms have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for, like, ever, our ability to cultivate these mushrooms has greatly improved over the recent decades, allowing for many studies to be done on their many touted health benefits.

There are so many promising effects of our little fungi friends! We are talking:

anti-cancer

immunological

anti-inflammatory

anti-diabetic

anti-viral and anti-microbial

cholesterol lowering

AND liver protection

They have even attracted the interest of some pharmaceutical companies, looking to them for biomedical molecules.

So, how do you incorporate these guys into your daily diet? First, know that when we refer to medicinal mushrooms, we don’t mean the little white button mushrooms you get in the grocery store. We are talking about the super weird ones that come in very weird shapes and sizes. The most well-known is the Reishi mushroom, but others are Zhu Ling or Turkey Tails. These can be hard to find, so our solution is a good, high-quality powder that you can mix into smoothies. We use ours every single day for optimal well-being!
